Chapter 2518 Jim froze, unable to believe his ears. He instinctively inched closer to Joshua and whispered, “Are you
saying that... Malcolm kept some of the poison with which he was instructed to kill Bonnie and even stashed it
somewhere?”
Joshua nodded, staring out in the direction in front of him.
He persistently prodded and provoked Malcolm so he would finally relent and hand over the poison. Joshua had
mentioned that he did not need Malcolm to expose the identity of the mastermind. That was because both he and
Jim were capable of finding out who this person was eventually.
Not only that, but he even had a suspicion as to who it was already.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNonetheless, it was not enough to find this person.
As Malcolm said, this person had minimal contact with him, and even if they managed to find who it was, it would
be hard to pin it on her because she had plenty of reasons and evidence that would help her evade responsibility.
Because of this, Joshua had to find even more evidence to prove her crime.
This evidence had to be so concrete that no further explanation was needed. However, only Malcolm possessed the
evidence that they needed. Joshua knew Malcolm was a careful man and must have taken some precautions before
agreeing to work with this person. Therefore, the only thing Malcolm could have used to protect himself was the
poison he was given.
He must have requested more of the poison and kept the extra for himself. If he succeeded in his task, he would be
able to use this poison against someone he hated.
If he failed, however, he could also use the remainder of this poison to threaten the person to help him leave the
city. Unfortunately for him, Malcolm, thinking this plan was airtight, forgot that there had been another pair of eyes
on him this entire time. Joshua was an even more meticulous man than him, and he was always one step ahead.
After listening to Joshua‘s explanation on their way to retrieve the poison, Jim could not help giving Joshua a
thumbs–up. “You‘re good.” It was no wonder this man was such a successful entrepreneur Ad2&{_Bl no wonder he
was able to conquer the entire Merchant City market within a year.
Joshua‘s mind was so intricate that one could never keep up.
Soon, the car arrived at a small field located behind Quinn Mansion.
Lucas helped a restrained Malcolm out of the car. “It‘s... It‘s right under this tree.” Malcolm pointed at a tree on the
outskirts of the field and said, “Can you... Can you leave a little bit just for me? I still want to...” “What do you want

or are you planning to use it to threaten the person who instructed you to kill Bonnie? Well, in your dreams!
“I won‘t allow you to hurt another person, and as for your other plan... “Don‘t you know that as soon as we get our
hands on the poison and run an analysis on the contents, we‘ll be able to find this person’s true identity, and she‘ll
be in deep shit? Are you sure she‘ll be able to protect you then?” The color drained from Malcolm‘s face upon
hearing this. He lowered his head and did not dare to say another word. Jim was right. That woman was no longer
capable of protecting him, so who else could he go to? At this rate, he had no one else to rely on...except for
Thomas.
